[QUOTE="Terri, post: 339703, member: 16448"] The shop quoted me RM2130 for the parts (Quotation No. 0150)..... even after removing the RM840 they quoted me for the front shocks and me removing the RM240 i'm paying for my recon front shocks Their parts bill alone is RM1290 and mine RM1047 before discount thats about RM250+ difference only I'd be willing to pay up to RM500 labour for the job but RM800 is just way too high! One of the reasons i'm getting my own parts is because i'm afarid they won't use the original parts or BMW grade parts as my other mehanic was going to use Toyota parts on my car if i couldn't afford BM parts ....shudders ...... He told me RM4000-5000++ for BM parts and RM2000-3000 for Toyota parts ......( breaks out into a cold sweat) Honestly, i had this experience last year when i replaced the entire aircon system in the car to new .... the new parts although stamped BMW looked nothing like the old parts and after the installation the aircon made an intermittent extremely loud howling noise which took months before it was finally gone .... the noise didnt affect the aircon's performanace tho, but honestly was extremely unsettling to say the least ...... i'm not sure if there are fake BMW parts out in the market but i'd just want to be sure this time that i'm getting what i paid for .....
